Editorial Reviews

Two mischievous twin tiger cubs live a carefree life in an exotic jungle amidst beautiful ancient ruins. But one day, an act of fate forces them apart, as one is sold off to the circus and the other becomes the pampered pet of a governor's son. Witness their remarkable journey as these tigers grow up, reunite, and embark on an incredible adventure to find their way home. From Jean-Jacques Annaud, the highly acclaimed director of The Bear, comes a heartwarming story about the power of friendship and the bond between brothers. Guy Pearce (Memento, L.A. Confidential) stars as a treasure hunter whose own spirits is unexpectedly tamed by the tigers in this timeless tale for the whole family!

Nature or nurture -- this is one of the most brilliant and beautiful love stories between animals and people, and between animal and animal (brothers). I have re-watched it so many times because I keep showing it to children and adults alike for the lessons it contains.

Two tiger brothers who start life, one as a brazen, wild and fearless youngster who is protective of his sibling who is carefree, has an insatiable curiosity and always getting into trouble, and who is afraid of everything, including his own shadow. The father is killed protecting the family, the mother is later killed by a hunter, so the brothers never learn how to be tigers in the wild! As each brother is captured by hunters, their shared memories together fade as they will never to see each other again. The path each tiger takes throughout life changes them and reverses the roles. A gentle playful coward becomes fearless and learned, and the wild and brazen is tamed. Memories return as spirits are broken and as spirits soar. This movie is marvelous and a must see.

Heartwarming?! Hardly! I stopped watching the movie after the mother tiger was killed because it made me feel nauseous. Yes, I know. It's just a story, and I know that none of the tigers were actually harmed. I thought this was going to be somewhat of a docudrama. Instead, the tigers were being used used as actors. As an avid animal lover, I believe wild animals should be allowed to be wild, not used for monetary gain. It was VERY sad when the father tiger was killed and the cubs were separated. And to suggest that a hungry tiger cub could be content to just drink honey water is sickening to me. I really cannot see how anyone who truly respects wild animals could enjoy this movie.

This movie has so much heart and important facts we all can learn from. One big fact is how quickly these animals are slowly becoming extinct. Not long ago, there was 100,000 Tigers on earth. Now there is only 5,000. Extinction of these amazing animals is the failure of the human race. We really need to care for and love these animals and keep them alive because all creatures under the Heaven is our duty to care for as caretakers of our world. This movie brought me to tears watching these two tiger cubs fight for survival. Their father was quickly killed and their mother trapped. One by one, the two tiger cubs are separated and forced into circus Tiger Fights(a very inhumane act). Not long within the fight, they realize they are brothers and work together to get back home. I found myself cheering them on as they ran onward to the loving embrace of their mother. The ending is priceless. Worth every penny we paid and more! Let us stand for these animals and teach our children to love and respect all of God's creatures!

Anyone who loves tigers will absolutely love this movie. Two tiger brothers are separated as cubs and are reunited as adults. One is taken by a boy who loves the cub dearly and when he gets his beloved tiger ripped away from him he is devastated. The other cub ends up in a circus where he gets mistreated. The one taken from the boy is eventually trained to be a vicious killer while his brother is eventually forced to fight against him. It has been a while since I've watched the movie but I do remember the heartwarming and touching scenes when the brothers are reunited and eventually set free by the boy and the man who had taken them in as cubs.

The movie itself was fantastic. It is about two brothers - tigers - who try to live their lives in peace until mankind comes along and breaks up their family. The two tigers each go on seperate adventures but towards the end through twists of fate are reunited.

A few observations -

(1) Other reviewers noted that the movie was rife with animal abuse. I did not find this to be the case at all. It was true too it's rating and very PG. Most of the alleged abuse is implied (which is bad in itself) but I was glad that it was not depicted in film.

(2) While mankind does many things well, we are absolutely the worst at being stewards of the planet. I pray to the big guy in sky and sincerely hope that mankind will come around to doing more to preserve and protect this beautiful animal. The world will be so much worse without the "Lord of the Jungle" in it.

(3) In the 1940's there were 450,000 lions, today there are like 20,000. In 1910 there were 100,000 tigers, today 5000. These statistics are absolutely pathetic.

(4) Countries need to step up and make the trade in all things big cat illegal. Even here in the US, if we would declare some of these animals endangered it effectively stops the trade in these animals and make it a felony to trade in suffering.

Great entertainment for adults (travelers, humanists and nature lovers). Great for children teaching them respect for nature, wildlife and the protection of art even when no custodians are around. The story is written in the engaging style of Kipling except that there is no child in the jungle being brought up by kind animals, this are two baby tigers captured and brought up in captivity for the profit and entertainment of humans BUT those same skills so painfully earned will bring them back to freedom w a twist of fate and the help of human friends. A feel good movie for the entire family w a great happy ending. Be careful w young children in the first 15 minutes before the baby tigers come after the mother answers the love call of a male tiger and romance occurs behind the Indian ruins where they'll be born and the new dad will have to suffer their childish pranks chewing his tail.
